Kiribati Public Holidays 2026

Complete list of public holidays — nationwide & regional

2025 2026 2027
Kiribati observes 10 nationwide public holidays in 2026. Of these, 3 fall on a weekend this particular year, which leaves 7 on working days — a detail worth checking, since holidays that land on a Saturday or Sunday are not always compensated with a day off in lieu. There is 1 clear "bridge day" opportunity this year — where a public holiday falls on a Tuesday or Thursday, so taking the single adjoining day off turns it into a four-day weekend. The calendar opens with New Year's Day on Thursday 1 January and closes with Boxing Day on Saturday 26 December.
